Title: TEPCO urged to compensate for tainted building material in Fukushima
Source: Kyodo
Date: January 20, 2012
[...] in Namie town, about 10 officials from the Environment Ministry, the Japan Atomic Energy Agency, and the Fukushima prefectural government conducted on-site research at the quarry, 26 kilometers northwest of the crippled power complex.Wearing protective gear, officials measured radiation levels in the air. In the air 1 centimeter above a stone in the quarry, up to 4 microsieverts per hour of radiation was detected. They took some stones as samples to check their contamination level in detail.
A survey meter carried by a reporter who accompanied the researchers detected radiation exceeding the device’s maximum measurable level of 20 microsieverts per hour. [...]

Headline would be more correct reading: “at least 5 times higher.”
Measurement pegged the instrument used at 20.
Polyanna measurement was 4.
greater than or equal to 5 times higher.
take care.

This sounds like a valid discrepancy (as to the article, not commenting on anyone else’s comment); not that it will produce any meaningful response from the public—or will it? (fingers crossed) Stop putting up with the lies people!
Report Comment
Yes, the reporter’s Geiger exceeded 20 uSv/hr… because the radiation has been measured at 333 uSv/hr at Namie…

The gov’t radiation meters are malfunctioning.. by design?

Can be easily done, just a quick reprogramming of the dose rate algorithms.

Just like how American voting machines were “hacked” to alter votes in past elections. Rem Bush v Gore and the Diebold scandal, where a programmer came out in court with evidence of backdoors being programmed into the software. Been done before and it will be done in the future, so your point is definitely plausible.
Report Comment
He never came out in court, he was set to testify, but and a small place “accident,” just days before.
Report Comment
Shit, “but had a small PLANE accident…”
I don’t type so well.
Report Comment
Same as William Casey, Ronald Reagan’s CIA director. Had a very convenient stroke and lost the power of speech the night before he was to testify about Iran/Contra. Close to a year later he was to testify again after recuperating…..had a stroke or heart attack a day or so before testifying.
This shits been goin on a long time.
The lunatics/pyschopaths are running the whole fucking asylum!!
